1995-96 Bulls V Magic

Nov. 14, 1995 The Bulls & Magic squared off in Orlando for the 1st time since the Magic eliminated the Bulls in the Playoffs after MJ's dramatic return.

Both Teams weren't fully assembled. The Bulls were missing Rodman & the Magic were missing Shaq.

Penny came up HUGE for the Magic, as indicated by his production that night. MJ was relatively quiet, as only he can score 23 pts & get 7 rebounds & 6 assists & it be deemed a "Quiet" night..

I uploaded this game MAINLY, to debunk the MYTH by these dummy kids that seem to populate YouTube, that claim:

A) MJ only competed against smaller guys or slow white guys..

B) Penny was overrated

C) There weren't BIG athletic small forwards/guards during this time to compete against..which is ABSURD..

Just in this game ALONE, MJ was guarded by:

Penny Hardaway - 6'7 220 lbs. I don't need to describe his game..U guys already know..

Nick Anderson - 6'6 210 lbs. Known for his open floor game, perimeter shooting & was a DEADLY low post threat from the 2 spot.

Donald Royal - 6'8 208 lbs. Known for his slashing style ala Gerald Wilkins.

Anthony Bowie - 6'6 205 lbs. Versatile player & great utility guy off the bench.

Brian Shaw - 6'6 205 lbs. Y'all know who he is. No introduction is needed.

Sometimes I wonder if these dumb ass kids hear how incredibly STUPID they sound when they try & make these baseless arguments to make themselves feel better about not seeing the NBA during the "Golden Era"..

Thx for the reply bro, I remember seeing all 4 games back in the day, but the last reg season game in Orlando was imo the best one because it was a close exciting game. MJ I remember started out 3/4 fg and finished 10/30 fg I think. Shaq just arrived at the arena in the 2nd quarter, think he dunked on Rodman nasty in that one

I looked thru my games, and haven't been able to find it. I believe my oldest brotha has it. He seems to always get games from me w/o telling me LOL!!

All I could find were the highlights from the game.

There's 1 play were MJ took Donald Royal off the dribble & elevated SO HIGH for a layup that the Magic were forced to foul him for the And-1 to try & stop him..

If I find it, I'll definitely post it..

Love the black jerseys

[kni00002]

You know how Kobe has modeled his game after Jordan...I want to see someone who has modeled their game after Magic or Penny. It would be awesome!

@AgentCirrus

I had it on DVD, but I can't seem to locate it..

[blackadam06]

Tell me about it..

These dumb YouTube kids will say anything just to keep from acknowledging the reality of the situation.
